They had managed to frighten me enough that I did not want to leave the house, so that the room my sister had offered me would have become my refuge.

I was lying on the bed, my eyes closed, trying not to think about anything, yet everything seemed to want to make a dent in my mind, all the thoughts I had wanted to forget, that I had kept hidden in my depths. Tears began to take over my eyes without having an apparent reason for it, but the reality was that I was fully aware of why I was like that, him. I wanted to see him, a fact that had made me more than once to have rephrased exposing myself, allowing Astra to find me. However,

I couldn't, I had promised to my sister that I wouldn't do it, although she did not know the reason why I wanted to do it.

"Kaelah, I have to tell you something" Kara opened the door of the room, frightening me, causing me to look at her with panic. "I'm sorry for frighten you" she smiled approaching, sitting on the edge of the bed as I joined. "Tomorrow you're going to have to come with me"

"I can take care of myself" I denied the idea knowing that she was going to fight back, but honestly I did not want to go with her.

"No, Alex is not at home, she can't watch you, so you come with me, just for a while" Kara seriously debated. "You'll have a good time, you'll meet my friends"

I sighed, narrowing my eyes, not wanting to continue with the conversation, not wanting to discuss it again, for I knew I would not change her mind.

I did not want to go out, I did not want to go with her where she worked, or met her friends. But I did not have the strength to deny it, to prevent her purpose, since I knew she would not stop until she succeeded.

"I'll let you rest." She smiled as she stroked my hair. "I love you," she whispered from the door.

"I love you too," I replied back before she closed it.

I hated all this situation, I hated that she treated me as if I were the child, as if I could not take care of myself, because I had to remind her that at one time everything had been the opposite, that I had been the eldest, who had cared for her and protected her for years, so no, I could not carry all this with normality.

"She grabbed her little sister's hand, helping her to get up, to stand, to continue walking, but this time without falling. The smile on her face was suddenly erased when she heard her parents' argument, stopping, holding her sister to keep her from falling to the ground, trying to hear every word they said, although one thing was clear, they talked about her.

"I'm not going to let you use her for it," her mother warned her father.

"She is our best asset, it will help us to imprison them more easily," he debated.

"She's four, she's not even aware of what she's doing, you can not force her to do it," her mother said.

"We can instruct her until she turns five and then explain her what she has to do, it's the best thing we have to win," he said, trying to convince her.

"She's the one who should decide. For my part I do not consent, she's just a kid, they can hurt her if they discover what she can do," she explained, the tone of voice was slightly.

"Alura ..." he began to speak.

"Do not! I'm sorry, but I'm not going to allow it, you're not going to do that, our daughter needs a normal childhood, "she said even more angry than at first.

"She's just going to work with us, at some point she should start to do it," her father responded to her earlier statement. "That girl is immune to Krypton's sun, she has powers, we don't even know everything she can do" He continued to try to convince her, again causing her to scream, repeating that she would not allow it.

At that moment she felt as her sister pulling her back as she began to cry, getting her to turn to embrace her in an attempt to calm her.

"Kara" she heard the scream of her mother as she approached them. "What happened?"

She stared at her mother for a couple of seconds, keeping her sister behind her, allowing her to crouch down to match them. She finally pulled away, letting her sister lay on her mother's neck, still sobbing, but the moment her father appeared in the room, she could not help but hide behind her mother's legs, afraid to get close.

"Kaelah, sweetie, come here," he called her, but she did not move, standing in that same position, carefully studying his movements. "Sweetheart, I'm not going to hurt you," he looked at her while he denied head.

She did not believe him, she did not do it, she could hear him in her thoughts, for that idea of forcing her to use her power remained in him, in his head, a fact that made her refuse to where he was, to seek protection from her mother, who caressed her hair, getting her to look at her.

It was so different what she heard in her, everything she thought, making sure she was going to protect her, that she would not let him use her in that way.

"Kaelah, you're doing it, aren't you?" Her father questioned her, "They're not going to hurt you, you just have to do this, nothing more," he tried to convince her, "Little one, are you going to want to do it?" he asked causing her to shake her head. "Then we won't do it, okay, baby, you're not going to do it," he said, approaching her.

She hesitated for a couple of seconds before advancing toward him, determined to trust the words he had spoken."

I looked at my sister through the mirror of the elevator, feeling how angry I was at times to see her smile, the happiness with which she looked back at me.

When the doors opened, I was quite frightened to see so many people going from one side to the other, but especially when I heard someone greet my sister, who grabbed my arm to stop me.

"Winn, she's Kaelah, my sister." She introduced me and made me study him carefully.

"Nice to meet you," I whispered, unable to avoid looking at everything around me.

"Nice to meet you too" He smiled before turning to Kara. "Is Grant aware of this?"

"Yes, I told yesterday," she replied, standing still. "She's coming."

I stuck to it without knowing what to do, waiting for everything to dissolve a little, to have my sister move. And so it was in just a few seconds she started to walk behind Cat Grant, who once inside the office watched us both for a while.

"I see you look quite alike," she said.

"Glad to meet you, Mrs. Grant." I smiled at her.

"You have a very well-educated sister," she said to Kara, who smiled nervously at the situation. "I like her facial features, they remind me of someone." She looked at me before grabbing my chin, lifting my head. "Supergirl, you remind me of her, but It shows that you're younger than she," she finally said, causing me to tense and my sister's nervous laughing to be present "You two could be relatives, but I see little possible, because your sister already showed me that it wasn't her" Cat miled while she still watching me. "Still, I'd like you to think about the offer of being a model"

I swallowed the moment she let go of my face, not knowing if I had to answer it, but I felt like my sister could not bear to speak, as if she thought the right words to speak to her.

"Mrs. Grant, I'm sorry to have to tell you that my sister is not going to do it, I mean, she's very young, I'd rather she study right now," she replied.

"Kora, it would only be a couple of days, besides I do not care your opinion, but hers" she pointed, looking at me expectantly.

I bowed my head, I was not going to do it, I did not see myself qualified for it, yet at the moment I wanted to contradict my sister, to make sure that if I was going to do something, it would be of my own free will, but not for another person, not out of obligation.

"Can I think about it a little longer?" I asked.

"Yes, of course," she said, smiling.

I smiled back just before my sister decided that we had to leave her office, for Mrs. Grant had not even said anything.

I felt she was watching me for a couple of seconds, squinting, as if she was angry.

"What are you thinking about?" my sister finally asked.

"And you?" I argued back in annoyance.

"Kaelah ..."s he began.

"I'm tired of you treating me like a baby, that I can not decide what I want to do," I looked at her. "I was never allowed to choose, I was given options, but someone chose it for myself, and I'm tired of that happening, Kara" I paused to lower my voice. "I've been wandering in space for years, asleep, not knowing where I was. I have come to a planet that I didn't know, that I had only heard of in the books, the stories that Astra told us when we were kids, where you are an adult and I ... I am still a teenager, who apparently they all have to protect, to worry about her, because they don't trust her enough to leave her alone at home or somewhere." I swallowed, avoiding tears. "Kara, I need you to trust me, to let me decide, please" I ended up looking straight into her eyes.

My sister watched me, not knowing what to say to me, but I did not need her to speak to me, because at the moment I felt free from all the thoughts that had once been locked inside me.

I watched as she opened her mouth to say something, closing it when she was interrupted by Grant, who called her, asking her to go get her food.

"Stay here, we'll talk later," she said before leaving.

I sighed, relaxing, not wanting to release the tears that were stored in my eyes. I moved toward the outside corridor, wanting to keep my sister's friend from following me, watching me.

I felt that someone grabbed my arm while covering my mouth, pulling me out of where I was, causing me to try to fight, but I soon realized that this was my end, I was going to pay for everything I had done.
